Describe the union certification process and the NO TIPS rules for labor elections.
What will be an ideal response?
Employees organize and select a union to represent them and then attempt to collect authorization cards from at least 30% of the employees in the appropriate bargaining unit. If they get 30% or more, an election will be called by the NLRB. If more than a simple majority vote for the union, the collective bargaining unit is certified by the NLRB; if not then the union vote fails.
NO TIPS is an acronym that stands for No Threats, No Interrogations, No Promises, and No Spying. This means that, after an election has been authorized, employers cannot threaten harmful consequences to employees in any other manner during the period prior to a labor election. Secondly, employers cannot question or interrogate employees about union organizing activities within the organization. Thirdly, management cannot promise that if employees vote against unionization, the organization will provide them with benefits because of their votes. Finally, management cannot spy on individual employees taking part in union organizing events, either through planting individuals in such meetings or through electronic or other means.
